The Garmin epix Pro Gen 2 Sapphire Edition is currently $499.99 on Amazon, down from its original price of $999.99. That's 50% off and $500 saved on one of the best GPS smartwatches Garmin makes.
The epix Pro is Garmin's premium performance watch, and the Sapphire Edition takes it further with a scratch-resistant sapphire lens and titanium bezel. The 1.3" AMOLED display is always-on, and the design of the entire watch is refreshingly versatile for an outdoor-oriented device, so it will look the part whether you're on a trail or in a meeting.
Garmin has its own approach when it comes to presenting stats. You’ve got the Hill Score that tracks your running strength during ascents over time, Endurance Score combines training data across all your sports, and Training Readiness tells you each morning whether your body is ready to push hard or needs to recover.
You should expect decent durability from a watch in this price range, and that’s exactly what you get with the epix Pro. The build quality is strong, and the sapphire lens should remain scratch-free after months of active outdoor use.
The watch supports multi-band GPS with SatIQ and comes preloaded with TopoActive maps, so you're covered whether you're on trails, a golf course, or a ski resort. Garmin also promises up to 16 days of battery life in smartwatch mode, although that will drop to 42 hours in GPS mode and 20 hours when using the more accurate multi-band GPS, which is still decent.
At $499.99, this is a serious watch at half its original price.
